When are we going to punish Citeh?
Main
So I'm assuming City will be facing a 1380 point reduction
Just absurd when teams like Man City and Chelsea have skirted FFP for a years now.
Everton getting a 12 point deduction and City never getting anything would be hilarious
For those who are posting "what about Man city??"
You do the smaller club with the slightly less good lawyers first and then take everything you learned about their defence and go after the bigger club. Man City's problems haven't gone away, they're just doing a practice run first.
Is this why Bill Kenwright died? Coincidental timing
How many points during all these years can we deduct from City then?
So basically what clubs need to do is have 100+ breaches of FFP and it'll take so long they'll never see any punishment. If you make a genuine mistake or bad decisions or deal, you'll be fucked. If you deliberately and consistently flaunt the rules for years you'll create too much paperwork to be dealt with.
115 x 12 🤔
Good, but don't forget about city and Newcastle
How are Everton in FFP danger? Feels like they barely spend
I still think with a 12 point deduction and the way the newly promoted teams are playing Everton could still stay up this season if this is what they get
I'm confused at all the snide comments here, Everton have posted over 300m in losses over three years and they're currently paying wages with a loan from 777 Partners that will have to be repaid if the takeover doesn't go through, which by all accounts is what is gonna happen considering how sketchy they are. I guess people aren't aware that there hasn't been a club this close to bankruptcy in the PL in a long time?
So do they wait for them to eventually get 12 points or will they just sit at -5
I'd rather they didn't
Chelsea fan shaking in my boots.
Because they are run so terribly, you are going to take points away from them, get them relegated and possibly make the club go bust?
Yeah, that seems like a healthy thing to do! I’m so happy football is run by such intelligent people!!
Should of hired MC lawyers
Pretty quick with Everton... Taking their sweet ass time with Manchester City.
Has no one told Everton that your suppose to bribe the FA with your oil money?
The only oil we have is what comes from Andre Gomes’s hair
Oh shit I did not think that this would actually happen. Means that they'd be on -5 after 9 games having played almost half the games you'd put them as favourites in over the course of a season (Luton, Wolves, Fulham and Bournemouth at home, Sheffiled United away).
Makes you wonder what kind of punishment Man City will face in 5 years once that investigation has wrapped up (let's be real it'll be like a relatively small fine and a transfer ban).
I mean, it still hasn't.
Would probably still stay up considering how bad the bottom 3 are but what a kick in the teeth for Everton when you compare it to the situation with City. Absolute joke.
Nah that much point deduction is absolutely massive
They've already got away with massively over exaggerating Covid losses, and selling the naming rights to their (at the time) non existent stadium for a huge sum. This charge might be a technicality but they've been absolutely skating close to the edge of what is morally or legally allowed for years now.
We didn't sell the naming rights, we sold the right to be the first option. Basically right of first refusal.
it's an independent panel that is going to decide and this is what the Premier League is going to recommend to them for anyone who hasn't read the article
It doesn't say it anywhere explicitly, but from my understanding it would apply in this season
GIVE THEM A REPLAY
